"To thine own self be true" Yellowstone fanfiction

chapter 4 "never goin back again"

Everyone sat on the fences watching me at around 3:30 pm on a hot day. I struggled to get a calf out of a very pregnant and very dilated heifer. I was two elbows deep in a uterus trying to position the baby correctly. "Where the fuck is lee with that jack!?"
"I'm here! I'm here!" Lee calls. I pull my hand out after applying a chain to the fetuses ankles. "Lee grab that chain. Start pulling when I say so. Rip! Grab that chain too!" I placed the jack beneath the cows uterus from the outside. This contraption will push that baby up from the uterus to hopefully help the mother push. I began to yank the jack. "pull boys! Pull!!" I yelled as I cranked the jack faster. The mother cried out in birthing agony. "Pull harder! Come on boys!" My arms were strong because of jobs like this. Ive done this many times before since the age of 17. The kids always found it fascinating.The waistline of the calve began to ooz out. "Little more!" I grunted as I jacked up the handle more. Soon enough the baby came flying out onto the ground. Out of breath I smacked the face of the calve. "Shit" I mumbled. Lee grabbed a hoof as I did too. We sung the calve up in the air slamming it onto the ground. The calve quickly perked up in response. "Nice" I panted smacking lees shoulder. "Fuck!" I breathed in exhaustion. I grabbed the bottom of Casey's shirt and wiping the sweat off my face. "Hey!!" Casey giggled and groaned. I pushed his forehead. He screams in grossness. "Twitty there is one more coming I see it!" Lee called out
"Two?" I rushed over putting my hand back in the uterus. "Are you fuckin kidding me?!" I wrapped the chain back around the another cows ankles. "Pull boys! Pull!" We all pulled. Thankfully the jack wasn't needed again. That mama was tired. She gave it one good push and that baby hit the ground. I kneeled down smacking it's face. "Hey! Get me some cold water! Somebody!" I yell. I rubbed the babies face as it was lethargic. "Here ya go!" An angry voice says when suddenly a bucket of freezing water drenched over my body. I stood up quickly looking back at the asshole who is wasting my time. "Are you fucking kidding me!?" I yelled as I shoved Nick. Nick laughed as he stumbled backwards. "I wanted to see them tits!!" He laughed harder. He was the only one laughing "You drunken piece of shit!!" I threw a punch at him hitting him in his cheek. After stumbling back into the fence He went after me. "Enough!! Enough!!" Lloyd yelled shoving Nick back "you got a lot of nerv there boy!" Nick and Lloyd began arguing hardcore. I didn't have time to stop and listen along with fight. I looked back at the calve who was struggling to breath. Quickly I ran over blowing air into his nostrils. "Come on baby come on" I patted his body as I did so. Suddenly through the loud arguing and screaming of threats I hear a gunshot ringing my ears. I look back at the sound. There laid lee almost dead on the ground with a bullet in his side. "Lee!?" I yelled. "Lee!!" I ran over holding his face. I looked over at Nick who was being beaten to the ground by others. I looked up at Jamie and rip "get him in the bunkhouse!! Now!!" I demanded. They were both quick to their feet. They grabbed both ends of lee marching him to the bunk house behind me. As I entered the bunkhouse I shoved everything off of their kitchen table before laying lee down. "Cut his shirt off! Expose the wound!" I yelled at rip. Rip ripped open his shirt as I washed my hands thoroughly in the sink. "I need my medical bag! It's in that closet near the front door!!" Rip was quick. He followed the instructions well.
"You ain't doin this here!! You aint doin it at all!! Twitty!! he needs a doctor" my father yelled. I ignored him as I stuck my finger in the bullet hole. "Are you listening to me twitty!?" I wasn't. I was focused on saving his life. If we waited any longer elee was going to die. My father pushed my hands away form my young brothers body. I was angry as I was also worried. I shoved my father hard making him stumble back. "BACK UP!" screamed as I cut my brother open. My father got the hint. He stood back watching nervously. "Wash your hands real good rip you're helping me" without hesitation he did so. I put a set of hemostats into his wound slowly but quickly finding the bullet. I slowly took it out, as I did he began to bleed profusely. I chucked the bullet to get it out of the way quickly. I slit his skin open to get a better look as to what the bleeding was being caused by. "Hit an artery" I mumbled. "Hold this right here rip" I held rips hand down in the wound as I grabbed a medical book from the bag. I quickly flipped to a page that showed the main arteries in the body. I glided my finger down the page reading quickly. "You think you got time to fuckin study twit!?" My father yelled. I looked up at him as he knew I hated that version of my name "I know what I'm doing!! I swear to God if you don't shut up!" I quickly looked back at my brother's open wound. "Continue that statement I dare you!" My father threatened. I ignored him
Quickly I grabbed sitch thread and a needle. "I want you to repeatedly soak this blood up. I don't care how many you use. Soak up all the blood got it?" Rip nodded in response. As I sewed up the wound he held the pressure soaking up the pints id blood leaving his body. We were a great team. After about 30 minutes I was able to get the bleeding to stop. I sewed up the wound completely. Of course when I finish the vet came in. "What the hell!" He says as he runs over. "Done" I pant and I pulled away from my brother with blood stained hands and arms. "I'm done!" I stepped away. My father grabbed me my my shirt shoving me against the wall "what the fuck was that!? you're gonna give your brother a fucking infection!! Are you fucking stupid!? Are you a fucking idiot!? Answer me god damn it!!" He shook me like a rag doll. I held my hands up above my sides as I didn't want blood getting anywhere. I stared at my father with no expression. "Go fuck yourself!" I yelled. For the first time in my life my father laid a hand on me. He smacked me so hard all I could hear was ringing for a couple seconds. I stared at him holding back any kind of tears I had. We just stared at each other. He was more shocked at himself than anything. "Amazing!" The doctor exclaimed. My attention along with my fathers shifted to the doctor who was still looking around at my brother. I stared at the table filled with puddles of blood and piles of bloody gauze, along with the medical book that had droplets of blood and one bloody finger streak down the page. "This...this is phenomenal! Twitty...well done.. all he needs is antibiotics and he should be okay" he stared at the wound in awe. My father looks down at the ground Infront of me. I looked at my father angry as hell. "Like I said. I know what I'm fuckin doing!!" I screamed as I shoved passed him going outside to find Nick. Nick was tied to the metal fence bars. I quickly ran over. I pulled my pistol out of the holster on my waist and whipped him right in the face. "You ugly fat piece of shit!!" I hit him again. "You're comin with me!" I yell as I untied him. I held a gun to his head as I shuffled him down the driveway. "I'm coming too!" Rip called. "Then hurry the fuck up!!" I yelled shoving Nick in the front seat of my shitty old truck. Lloyd looked at my father. "Should we stop her?" My father shook his head. "let em' go"

.....

I drove as rip held a pistol to nicks head. I quickly pulled up to a cliff on the side of the road. We called it the train station. "Get out!" I yelled. Nick chuckled. "Get out!!" I screamed. I took the gun from rip smacking him in the face with it once again. He weakly got out, falling to his knees Infront of the open passenger door. "Move!! Let's go you son of a bitch!!" He shuffled on his knees to the edge of the cliff with his hands still tied to his back. "Face me!" I demanded. He turned around "what is this!? What are you gonna do baby girl" he chuckled loudly with bloody teeth. I pulled the hammer of the pistol back. "Any last words fat fuck?"
"I don't regret the water. I can see your sweet little nipples through that tank top of your! Best part is it ain't a white shirt anymore. It's red!" He cackled an evil man's cackle. I sent the shot straight into his head. I kicked his chest leading him to fall down into the deep abyss of death. I stared down the dark valley. Panting in exhaustion I looked back at rip. "Good job June bug. Proud of you" I said breathlessly as I lean against the truck. He watched me with no emotion. "You alright?" He asked as he watched the cut on my lip. "I'm jolly can't you tell baby?" Rip stepped closer to me wiping lees blood off my cheek. "Think we should get back. I've got some things to say to my old man" I chuckled slightly. I went to walk to the drivers side door but was quickly stopped by rips hand on my arm. I looked at him in confusion. "What is it-" I was Interrupted by the lips of the lost puppy. My eyes widened at the interaction. "Damn June bug! Your balls are bigger than Neptune ain't they!?" I laughed aloud. "Now you ain't fuckin both the farmers daughters" rip looked down a bit embarrassed. I watched with sympathy. "I was teasing rip... I'm flattered... But... You're 15. I'm 21. That's weird" he shrugged unbothered. "I'll just try again when I'm older" he says as he slips into the passenger seat. I scoffed in laughter "what in the world is going on!"
